| Abstract(in English) | We developed an on-line Japanese character entry system with handwriting input device for visually disabled Persons (especially. acquired blind persons). This system is composed of an electric tablet for writing a character, a hand controller for controlling the system condition, a recognition algorithm of handwritten characters and a voice synthesizer which indicates a recognized character. For characters written by visually disabled person. we already proposed a character recognition method based on the relative direction between two strokes (RDS method). However, as the feature parameters of the RDS method are decreasing for the characters having less than 6 strokes. recognition errors are increasing. This paper investigated the improvement (fusion) method which is added the new LSDS method (the method is based on the line segment directions in a stroke ) to the RDS method. From the experimental results. it is shown that the satisfactory recognition accuracy and efficiency can be obtained using this newly recognition method. |
